My go to response is usually “what do you mean by that?” Generally people say stuff like that to imply it’s impossible to “know” anything. But does it really matter if this is a dream or not?
Well, yes. Actually it does matter. Modern materialistic approach lets us assume that physical laws (no matter if we know them or not) are universal and applicable to anything. "Dream" concept leaves us in total chaos without even a theoretical chance to figure out how things work. It even has totally crazy synchronization problems between different "dreamers" if there are a few of them. There isn't a single question that is answered by Machism. Absolute religion-tier stupidity.
So it does matter.
This is my thought. If we’re living in some dreamscape, why is physics so ruthlessly inflexible?
Physics isn’t solved, so I don’t think it’s fair to call it ruthlessly inflexible. https://youtu.be/nn94mn8ozOI
